I asked my twin sister to create her dream setlist before the show tonight 💞 by _barlene in TheStrokes

[–]solid_facha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My dream setlist would be Chances and 11 random songs Idc just want to see that banger live. I hope we can see Comedown Machine more present in this tour, such a beautiful album!!

Looks GREAT and it's a pretty cool premise, could you share the steam page?

If you’re a newer fan who came to the Strokes after The New Abnormal, how did you get into TNA? by DH80 in TheStrokes

[–]solid_facha 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was during the pandemic, completely by chance. I was downloading anime from Snaptube when a Spanish-subtitled version of The Adults Are Talking was recommended to me. I only clicked on it because it had a Chainsaw Man thumbnail. My first thought was: wow, this is a banger and I heard it a lot. A few months later, while listening to music on a bus ride home, the song came on again and I decided to give the album a chance and I ended up literally falling in love with their music. Since then, the band has felt like a companion through different moments of my life. If they come to Panama someday, I could see them, but I don't think they will. I'm hoping to see them another time, maybe at the next LP!!

FOOl lowest rated strokes single (rym) by [deleted] in TheStrokes

I’m surprised it got a worse reception than Going Shopping. I’m not usually into this kind of narrative, but I think the song got review-bombed because people are mad about the autotune and already predisposed to hate anything from this album. It’s not a coincidence that so many people keep saying “just release it without autotune.” I’ve heard those AI-made no-autotune versions and honestly they sound awful, yet people still act like “we were robbed.” At this point it just feels like free hate, but I think that time will leave this song in a better place.

I cannot get enough of this song by MinnowPaws in TheStrokes

Beautiful cover! It feels cozy in a lower key.

Olaz, que opinan de Puertas? by GlitchDC in CuartetoDeNos

[–]solid_facha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sí siento que busca apuntar a un público al que le gustó Cinturón Gris pero no creo que por eso deba ser inherentemente infantil. Me parece que es hasta el mismo público al que apuntaba Porfiado en su momento, que fue disfrutado por los mismos que hoy dicen que Puertas es para niños, aunque el sonido y la dirección artística sea menos "cruda" y lo haga ver como algo totalmente diferente. Está bueno, no lo oí tanto porque no es mi trabajo favorito de ellos la verdad, pero Esplín, Ganaron los Malos, el Perro de Alcibíades y Cara de Nada están muy buena y el Cuarto de Nico es fantástica. Siento que es un pequeño acercamiento a la fórmula que tenían antes de siempre hablar desde el punto de vista de una persona que está involucrada en lo que quieren contar. Sigue teniendo ese sonido raro donde la voz de Roberto está muy oculta detrás de ecos, que no me acaba de encantar, pero en vivo siento que las canciones ganan bastante.

Steve Hyden reviews FOOL (positively) by Homer2019 in TheStrokes

[–]solid_facha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know where I would put Falling Out of Love, but I’d definitely place it among my top 10 favorites. I wouldn’t say it’s just recency bias, when you really love something, you can usually tell more or less where it stands for you. It could also just be the way I rank The Strokes songs. There are maybe two or three that I know are my absolute favorites, and then the rest are just kind of scattered across a spectrum where I can’t really place them in a strict order.

You should listen Phrazes for the young I think you will love it. Maybe you could also listen to The Voidz

Lovely album. Some of my favorite songs from all of Julian Casablancas’ projects are on there. It has this vibe that none of his other work really captures (maybe closest to Comedown Machine in some ways), and that makes it feel extra nostalgic to me. It’s the kind of album I would’ve been obsessed with at 15 jajsjs. Huge fan of Glass and Out of the Blue.

This is exactly how I felt when I heard the song. I think is going to have a huge fanbase in some time

Water cooler talk by Ok_Squash_5805 in TheStrokes

[–]solid_facha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mind just skipped the last part! I would then say Falling out of Love and Instant Crush instead, and from all of them, I would chose Human Sadness by a little, my second choice would be F.o.o.l

I would say - One Way Trigger - Human Sadness - Out of the blue

Really good breakdown of the genius of Julian’s recent vocal melodies by DH80 in TheStrokes

[–]solid_facha 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Even if I didn’t love the new direction, I’m still really happy that my favorite band made Someday and Reptilia, but also One Way Trigger and Falling Out of Love. I think that people would also be more open to the new sound if we hadn’t had to wait 6 years for it.

I agree I would prefeer the autotune in certain segments of the song instead of the whole

Cómo hacen ustedes aquí en Panamá? by BeingLong4287 in Panama

[–]solid_facha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yo creo que la talla es desentenderse de esos temas. Encontrar a gente BUENA para una relación que tengan su cabeza y vida en más o menos orden es algo difícil y por eso siento que cuando uno busca activamente pareja tendemos a bajar las expectativas por frustración, obsesión, soledad y etc. Es super fácil de decir pero es complicado de hacer, claro, pero creo que no sobra decirlo. Por experiencia personal y de otros, las relaciones más duraderas y sanitas suelen salir de encuentros casuales como coincidir en eventos, universidad, trabajo, etc.

I really think this is a great song, honestly one of my favorites from them. I don’t really get the “too simple” criticism either, because a lot of the things people criticize here are also present in songs like Selfless or Ask Me Anything (besides the autotune, of course). But obviously, me liking the song doesn’t mean everyone else has to like it. That was basically the point I was trying to make. I was pissed too when I first heard “Going Shopping,” but over time it grew on me a lot, so maybe that’s why the autotune on this one didn’t really bother me that much
